(Whitewater Public Library submission) The Irvin L. Young Memorial Library Presents: Mexicans in Wisconsin on Tuesday, March 23rd at 6:00 p.m. Registration for this Zoom program is at whitewaterlibrary.org.
Trace the diverse journeys of Mexicans to the Badger State with historian Sergio M. González, author of Mexicans in Wisconsin (Wisconsin Historical Society Press). González will follow the emigration trails that led Mexicans to settle in Wisconsin over the last century and share how they’ve come to build homes and community in rural and urban spaces across the state. Sergio M. González is an assistant professor of Latinx Studies at Marquette University. A historian of twentieth-century U.S. immigration, labor, and religion, his scholarship focuses on the development of Latinx communities in the Midwest.
We welcome everyone in the community to attend our meetings and participate in our events. If you require accommodations to make that possible for you, please call the office of the Library Director (473-0530) 72 hours prior to the meeting.
